### GST Validation Disabled (Default)

* Keep the option **disabled**.
* Now, create a new account and enter an **incomplete GST number**.
* When you try to save, the software will **prompt a validation message**, ensuring the GST number is correctly entered.

This ensures only **valid GST numbers** are accepted.

### GST Validation Enable&#x20;

* Go back to configuration and **enable** the option **“Do Not Validate for GST Number”**.
* Create a new account again and enter an **incomplete GST number**.
* This time, the system will **not prompt for validation** and will allow you to save the account smoothly.

This is helpful for cases where GST details are **not mandatory**.

***

### Key Takeaways

* **Enabled (default):** GST numbers are validated before saving.
* **Disabled:** GST validation is skipped, and incomplete/blank GST numbers are accepted.

This gives flexibility to manage accounts depending on whether **GST compliance** is necessary or not.
